    Abstract:
    This study report an human serum IgG antibodies to Helicobacter pylori quantitation procedure based on the multiple use of an immobilized H. pylori antigen on an immuno-column incorporated into an a flow-injection (FI) analytical system. The immuno-adsorbent column was prepared by packing 3-aminopropyl-modified controlled-pore glass (APCPG) covalently linking H. pylori antigens in a 3-cm of Teflon tubing (0.5 i.d.). Antibodies in the serum sample are allowed to react immunologically with the immobilized H. pylori antigen, and the bound antibodies are quantified by alkaline phosphatase (AP) enzyme-labeled second antibodies specific to human IgG. p-Aminophenyl phosphate (pAPP) was converted to p-aminophenol (pAP) by AP and an electroactive product was quantified on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) (GCE-CNTs) at 0.30 V. The total assay time was 25 min. The calculated detection limits for amperometric detection and the ELISA procedure are 0.62 and 1.8 UmL(-1), respectively. Reproducibility assays were made using repetitive standards of H. pylori-specific antibody and the intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation were below 5%. The immuno-affinity method showed higher sensitivity and lower time-consumed, demonstrate its potential usefulness for early assessment of human serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies to H. pylori.
